It looks fairly comparable in price, terms and equipment to the Starband system I use. In the almost six years I’ve been on Starband I’ve had some equipment problems such as modems going out. Very time consuming to get a human on their tech support line and it’s a challenge to get them to swap...

Guess I’m plain and old fashioned. For deer the 30.06 never broke so I haven’t fixed it. All mine are scratched and ugly on the outside and clean and bright on the inside. That’s the way I am with shotguns and rifles. They work for me, not the other way around.

Congratulations, cypress

Just got to this thread after seeing the other. Looks like several participants have never hunted quail. If you’re in good quail with good dogs you can easily walk/run 20 miles in a day. If you’re middle aged or older you’re going to get in a pickup between covey rises. You work the dogs...

I’d rather go hunting with Cheney than driving with Kennedy.

There’s definitely something about electrical fields that ants like. They have been the demise of contact points in many a relay. If it’s somewhere that you don’t care about the grass or landscaping it might not hurt to soak the ground with fuel or dirty oil. By accident of course (for the...

Across the top of the nose is the sweet spot to land a blow on a cow. It makes an odd hollow sound when you really connect and they HATE taking a shot there. I agree with Texan and with Dun. Don't wait to apply it, make it count and don't do it without a plan of retreat, such as into the bed...

Hmmm. Ida thunk thada happened way back there somewhere. Way to go Ruby.

Atta girl Milkmaid. It’s a pleasure reading what you have to say.

Thanks for the vote of confidence LA. lakading, he's right. I guess I didn't make myself clear enough. I was talking about making selling decisions and scales not being necessary for that. A rancher hardly ever buys calves so there's no need for scales on that end. If buying private treaty I...

IMO an order buyer who, after seeing calves go across the scales, has to change them to different orders on a regular basis isn’t worth his salt. But, back to the point, scales simply aren’t necessary for a cow/calf operation. You can generally eyeball them to within +/- 25 pounds and that’s...

I'll give these places a try. Thanks

If you’re a rancher running commercial cattle you measure with your eyeballs.
